This content is 9 years old. Remember that the following content might be outdated.

Every week I post a lot of my daily readings about Web, UI and UX Design, mobile design, webdesign tools and useful ressources, inspiration on twitter and other social networks.

This week’s selection is particularly mobile oriented: mobile UX, mobile navigation patterns, Google Plus going full responsive, some accessibility conflicts caused by implementing swipe gestures, 10 tips to help you build a responsive site and Ethan Marcotte’s new book on responsive patterns. Also don’t miss two performance and SVG tutorials, a cute GIF animated icon pack and a site that features more than 400 UX/UI conferences.

Have a nice read 🙂
